Will Zara fight the dangers that await or embrace her true destiny? **EXCERPT** "I... didn't want to be late for work. You seemed busy, so I thought I'd get a head start." Snow raised an eyebrow. "Really? Or is it because last night affected you so much that you couldn't stand being around me?" "Don't flatter yourself, Snow. You didn't affect me at all." He smirked, stepping closer. "Is that so?" His fingers brushed my chin, tilting my face up. My pulse quickened. "We're at work," I snapped, swatting his hand away. "This isn't professional." "You're my wife," he murmured. "You're supposed to obey me at all times." I bit back a retort, a hint of rebellion flaring within. Slowly, I stepped closer, letting my fingers graze his chest. His smirk wavered for a second when his wolf reacted and Snow bit his lips. "Careful, Boss," I purred seductively. "Don't hurt those lips. I'm sure plenty of girls would love to kiss them." Snow leaned down, his lips brushing my ear. "And you? Are you dying for a taste?" Caught off guard, I hesitated, then regained my composure as I looked him in the eyes. "Unlike other girls, I have strong resistance against—" I didn't get a chance to finish when Snow's lips crashed onto mine with a fierce kiss that left me breathless. *************** MATURE CONTENT Participating in the Viral Book Call Contest.

Invited to the banquet, Luo En saw the golden apple in the plate inscribed with "To the fairest goddess" and the three goddesses embroiled in dispute before him, and he picked up a knife with a smug smile. The first step, peeling; he gave the skin to Aphrodite. "To be fair, you're quite pretty. As a layer of skin, you're not bad to look at." The second step, slicing the flesh; he gave that to Hera. "As the queen of heaven, yet everyone in Olympus from 800-year-olds to animals has cuckolded you, including males, females, and even sheep. Since you can't save face anyway, take these insides." The third step, he gave the remaining core to Athena. "You were supposed to be born a male god and take over Zeus's position, but due to Zeus's shenanigans, you lost that seed, so here, have this core." Aphrodite clenched her fists, Hera raised her scepter, Athena summoned her spear and shield... Seeing this, Luo En quickly stepped back, shielding the goddess of discord, Eris, firmly in front of him. "And you still want to be the goddess of discord? Look at me; I got them to unite at once, even better than you with your instigation." "..." Surrounded by Greek gods sharpening their knives, Eris was left in silence.

Asher had always dreamed of adventure. A simple farm boy with a bright smile and a sickle in hand, he set off to join the Adventurer’s Guild, believing his new life would be filled with excitement, camaraderie, and maybe a little glory. He had no grand ambitions—just a thirst for something more than crops and cattle. But the world had other plans. His first dungeon dive should have been easy—an entry-level quest to clear out some weak monsters. But when he meets a lost, whimpering goblin child, his kindness costs him everything. Tricked and betrayed, Asher is ripped apart, his screams swallowed by the darkness of the labyrinth. His adventure should have ended there. But it didn’t. Refusing to die—refusing to be forgotten—his soul clung to what little remained. His flesh was devoured. His blood seeped into the earth. Only his bones remained. And so, Asher rose again. A mind once filled with dreams now wrestles with the instincts of the undead. A body once strong and warm is now nothing but bone. He should be mindless, hollow—but something wrong lingers inside him, something still alive. Stronger. Faster. Hungrier. What started as an innocent adventure has turned into a brutal fight for survival. To evolve, he must kill. To grow stronger, he must devour. And as he climbs from the depths of the dungeon that consumed him, one question burns in his hollow chest: "If I was meant to die… then why am I still here?"
